Most MetroED employees are represented by employee bargaining units. Your classification will determine, when appropriate, which bargaining unit will represent you. The District works cooperatively with its bargaining units in providing all employees with a safe, fair, and supportive work environment. If you are a member of a bargaining unit, be sure you are familiar with the unit's agreement with the District. The bargaining agreements specify many matters related to employment and employee benefits. Your unit should be in contact with you and can provide you with a copy of the agreement.

The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) represents hourly certificated teachers who teach classes primarily for adult students.

The California School Employees Association (CSEA) represents classified employees, including those employees in office, technical, para-educator, custodial, grounds and maintenance positions.

The California Teachers Association (CTA) represents certificated contract teachers who teach classes primarily for high school students.

Administrators, staff not supported by State or Federal funding, confidential, substitutes, hourly classified, and exempt classifications are not represented by a bargaining unit.
